Welcome to the latest episode of The Ski Summit Show, where we tackle the hot topics shaping the real estate landscape. In today's episode, we discuss the recent $1.8 billion jury verdict against the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and its potential to revolutionize the industry.

Matt and Benji break down the different scenarios that could unfold regarding who pays the buyer’s agent fee. Will it be the seller, the buyer, or perhaps the buyer's lender? This decision will compel agents to better articulate their value, much like lawyers do, and could awaken buyers to their right to choose and negotiate their representation.
